Frequently Asked Questions

Will voices sound weird at different speeds?

No! Modern time-stretching preserves pitch, so voices and music maintain natural tone. At 1.5x, someone sounds faster but not high-pitched.

What's the best speed for audiobooks/podcasts?

Most people find 1.25x-1.5x ideal for comprehension without rushing. Start at 1.25x and gradually increase if comfortable. 1.75x-2x is for experienced speed listeners.

Can I slow down to learn music?

Yes! 0.5x-0.75x is perfect for learning fast passages, solos, or transcribing music. The pitch stays the same, making it easier to hear individual notes.

Will quality be affected?

Minor quality changes are possible with extreme speeds (below 0.5x or above 1.75x), but moderate adjustments (0.75x-1.5x) maintain excellent quality.

Can I use this instead of a podcast app's speed feature?

Yes, but most podcast apps already have speed controls built in. This tool is useful for audio files that don't have native speed adjustment.

Are my files stored?

No. All processing is secure and files are automatically deleted after speed adjustment. We never store or access your audio.
